This painting is an interpretation of the villa 'The Darwin D. Martin House' designed by the famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The house is located in Buffalo, New York. It is one of Frank Lloyd Wright's earliest and most important masterpieces. This house was designed by Wright in 1902 and constructed between 1903 and 1905. It is considered by many to be the most important work of the first half of his career and among the best works of his life, along with the Guggenheim Museum in New York City and Fallingwater in southwestern Pennsylvania. The Martins lived in the home for three decades. However, they lost most of their fortune in the 1929 stock market crash and abandoned the home in 1937. It sat vacant for several decades before being used as an apartment and a home of the president of the University of Buffalo. Built in the prairie style, this large residential complex was designed, landscaped, and extensively furnished by the architect. The history of its creation, recorded in over 400 letters exchanged between Wright and Martin, forms a fascinating biography not only of the house but of its architect and client.
